Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are allegedly spending Valentine’s Day apart, adding to rumors that their marriage is in trouble. Meghan returned home to California without Harry after attending the Invictus Games opening ceremony in Vancouver.
According to sources, Meghan’s departure was planned so she could be with their children, Archie (5) and Lilibet (3). However, some people speculated that their relationship is strained, especially after Meghan was criticized for showing too much affection toward Harry at the event. Social media users pointed out that Harry seemed to lean away from her, leading to comments that she was acting “desperate” or “clingy.”
Rumors of a possible split have been circulating for months. Reports suggest the couple has been living separate lives and even tried a “trial separation.” Harry also spent his 40th birthday with friends instead of Meghan and took solo trips to New York and South Africa.
Adding to the speculation, sources claim Meghan’s team has met with publishers about a potential book focused on her life “post-divorce.” Though they are still married, some believe she is preparing for the possibility of a split.
The couple, who married in 2018, continues to face public scrutiny over their relationship.
